System and method for indexing, searching and retrieving semantic objects

A system for storing a semantic object, the system comprising:

• a semantic object summarizer, executed by a computer, that receives a previously-defined semantic object extracted from raw data and classified to comprise said semantic object, said received semantic object having one or more attributes, and generates:
• a summary of attributes of said semantic object by calculating one or more statistics of one or more of said one or more attributes of said received semantic object;
• a confidence level of said received semantic object that quantifies a degree of certainty that said received semantic object has been correctly classified and/or labeled;
• and
• a compact representation of raw data of said received semantic object;
• an indexer, executed by said computer, that generates indexing information for the summary of attributes and the compact representation of said semantic object;
• and
• a database that stores said semantic object along with its associated summary of attributes, confidence level, compact representation, and indexing information as a semantic object database associated with a database storing said raw data.
